In today’s article, we will discuss the important experiments and findings form Parker Solar Probe mission.
The Parker Solar Probe uses repeated gravity assists at Venus to incrementally decrease its orbital perihelion to achieve the final altitude
Today we will explore another important spacecraft: The Parker Solar Probe. Before going into the details of Parker Solar Probe, let us first understand the need for studying the Sun
We will be discussing the important experiments and instruments onboard Helios-A and Helios-B.
Helios B was the second spacecraft launched to investigate solar processes as part of a cooperative project between the Federal Republic of Germany and the United States in which the former provided the spacecraft and the latter the launch vehicle.
Helios-A and Helios-B (also known as Helios 1 and Helios 2) were a pair of probes launched into heliocentric orbit for the purpose of studying solar processes.
Having completed its flyby of Pluto in July 2015, the New Horizons spacecraft placed itself on a trajectory towards Arrokoth. It is the first object to be targeted for a flyby that was discovered after the visiting spacecraft was launched
New Horizons was more than 203 million kilometers (126,000,000 mi) away from Pluto when it began taking the photos, which showed Pluto and its largest moon, Charon.
New Horizons is an interplanetary space probe that was launched as a part of NASA's New Frontiers program.
